Hi all, I wanted to announce that Math, Better Explained is available on the Kindle store!
If you’re looking for a digital gift this holiday season, I know just the ticket ;).
A lot of work was done to convert the original PDF but keep the image and equation formatting the same, and readable on eInk and color screens. Here’s the cover and what it looks like on a few different devices:
I’d like to thank everyone for their feedback and support! If you’ve already bought the PDF ebook, you should have received an update via email (I apologize for the improper formatting, and formatting, and formatting — I’ll stick to a blog post for today!).
Happy math,
-Kalid

That’s awesome! Congratz! Bought my copy just now! :)
Thanks Steve!!! :)
How much of Amazon’s $9.99 will go directly to you?
Amazon gives 70% to the author if the ebook is 9.99 or under :).
sweet! Will be getting mine as soon as I put money on me card. I really like the cover btw!
@Tara: Awesome, thanks :). Glad you liked the cover, I went through a lot of variations and hoped to find one that was welcoming.
Does that mean it’s available on the Kobo? The Canadian Kindle?
@Audrey: Great question — I haven’t yet published it to other stores (Kobo, Barnes & Noble). I’ll be updating the main ebook page to include this download though, so getting the deluxe version will include a .mobi and .epub file which should work with most e-readers.
Congratulations, Kalid!
After hearing about all your great work on this great project, I’m all the more happy for you! :D
Cheers…
@Stan: Thanks =)
This book should be read by anyone and everyone who is trying to bridge the divide between the computation of old and the realities of the new digital environment in which we all live. In the time it took me to write this note my wife (she rates the kindle) downloaded this incredibly insightful text. Read it…recommend it…then read it again.
@Mark: Thanks for the kind words! =)
nice one
Kalid, since I found your website I got excited about maths. I want to get a book, but need to know if there is any difference in price between getting the e-book and the book printed. I´d like also to know if there is a difference between this new cover book and the other you are selling. Are they the same in content inside? Thank and Congrats.
Hi Mario, thanks for the note! Yes, the content is the various ebooks is the same. If you’re looking to print out a copy, I’d suggest getting the PDF version for $19 (which includes the Kindle version), since the PDF is formatted for easy printing (the Kindle version is optimized for being read on the Kindle, and has a much simpler layout). Thanks for the encouragement — hope this helps!
Kalid, thanks for the help. What I really want is the Complete version. I will make the necessary efforts to get it as soon as possible. Thanks again.
@Mario: Thanks, happy if I could help clarify :).
When are you going to make a print version? I would order it in a heartbeat!
@Brian: Thanks! I’m looking into some print options now, actually :).
